Describe in detail
According to the aspect described in this specification, even if user should be able to be used for implementing mobile communication (such as in use one, audio call, Short Message Service (SMS) or other text messages, video call or image message) time also can keep in the mobile world its mark (that is, its MSISDN).Such as, user may expect by the application on one of its equipment or software instead of receive its SMS entered by the application on the mobile phone of user or software.Similarly, user may wish by the calling entered that should be used for receiving the MSISDN being directed to them via WiFi access point and packet data network communication.
the communication of cell identities is directed to by packet switching network route
For ease of this ability, the service provider substituted can realize a kind of system, within the system, application on mobile device at least when mobile device has the enough accesses to WiFi or other data cube computation to a server registration, communication can be sent to mobile device by packet switching network and from mobile device received communication by this server.Server can be connected with cellular network by a networking component, and this networking component is by the cellular network received communication of routine and forward this communication by the Internet.Networking component can as typical mobile switching centre (MSC) and the visitor location register be associated (VLR) and cellular network communication, and simultaneously by using the Internet of such as Internet protocol to communicate.In order to receive the communication entered of the telephone number being directed to mobile device subscribers, this networking component can notify to the attaching position register of this subscriber (HLR): though mobile device reality connected by the Internet and be connected to networking component and may be positioned on entity linking Internet can any position time, the mobile device (having the subscriber identity module (SIM) of subscriber) of this subscriber is also registered in the cellular network that this networking component is served.This networking component can be regarded as new visitor location register (nVLR) and can with the server combination providing this service, although various function also can be distributed on multiple assembly.
In an illustrative embodiment, to the service provider (ASP) substituted, user notifies that this user receives to the application by ASP the cellular communication being directed to the MSISDN of this user interested, and provides the MSISDN of this user (being registered by the home service provider of user) to this ASP.For fail safe object, ASP can confirm that this user is actually the holder of MSISDN.This confirmation can such as be performed by following steps: use the particular number that should be used for that the telephone call of user is associated with this ASP of ASP and identify the caller ID that this enters calling; Calling party and require that user dials some DTMF numerical digit to verify this MSISDN and belong to this user and this user is interested in service; To user MSISDN send SMS and confirm this user receive this SMS and to service interested; The phone of user is made to send SMS to confirm this MSISDN to service number; Etc..
ASP can be connected to SS7 network by a cellular carrier, this cellular carrier desirable to provide for ASP access and there is the roaming agreement with the ownership cellular carrier of subscriber.ASP, cellular carrier or other entities a certain can operate above mentioning and the new VLR be described further below.
The thering is provided of service of ASP is generally limited to the unripe occasion operated in another cellular network (comprising the home network of user) of mobile device, with the cellular registration avoided conflict.Therefore, may expect to determine notify to HLR this mobile device roam in the region that new VLR serves before, the SIM of the mobile device of user unripe in another cellular network Active Registration.Such as, once the specific MSISDN of request forward (such as, application by the mobile device of user), ASP just can send routing iinformation (Send-Routing-Info-For-Short-Message by issuing a short message to the HLR of user, be sometimes referred to as SRI4SM), obtain the IMSI of user.This message is generally used for searching IMSI and VLR be associated with specific MSISDN, and object is short message to be passed to subscriber.If SIM is online and be registered, then HLR generally can, by sending Ack (IMISI, VLR) message together with the VLR SS7-address serving this SIM at present, use the IMSI of SIM to make response.If SIM off-line, that is, it is not movable and in the mobile phone be registered, then HLR generally can send the message that Reject (rejection) message or indicating user are not useable for reception SMS in response to SRI4SM.In this way, ASP only can be continued when user's inertia by inquiry HLR, and is served and be limited to the inactive situation of SIM.Also other can be used for confirming the current inertia of SIM and unregistered technology.
Then, to this HLR, nVLR by upgrading the IMSI providing user in location message-UL (IMSI) to the HLR of subscriber, can notify that this SIM just roams in its network.In other words, by the roaming agreement between ownership cellular carrier and the cellular carrier providing access to this ASP, nVLR can register the VLR of the IMSI as this subscriber.HLR can confirm this request by sending insertion subscriber data message (ISD), nVLR also can send authorization information (SAI) message by transmission one and ask the verification vectors for verifying this SIM (comprising C and F (C, Ki)).
After this, when SMS service center (SMSC) transmission is directed to the SMS message of the MSISDN of user, SMSC inquires this HLR, and this HLR returns to nVLR SS7 address.By using this address, SMS message is passed to nVLR by SMSC.Then, this message can be forwarded to the application that is associated with the MSISDN of user or convert mark to another MSISDN or IMSI and by applying, this message be directly forwarded to subscriber by nVLR, or, if user selects message to be forwarded to alternative SIM, then by another SMSC, message is forwarded to the equipment with this alternative SIM.Whether nVLR can be successfully delivered and returns successfully or failure to the SMSC sending this message by Effect-based operation.Or nVLR can reply with fixing response, the success of all message such as it received for subscriber.Even if owing to usually there is no charged extra when roaming for the SMS message entered, therefore there is no charged extra to the SMS message entered concerning user.
In this way, nVLR makes the SIM of user and/or the corresponding mobile device that is associated to MSISDN is rendered as to its HLR and roams as in the network of cellular carrier supporting year VLR, and mobile device and/or SIM can be physically located in another region simultaneously.Because operator sends special SMS message to user usually when roaming, therefore these message may to or not in another region roaming or the user that roams in the region different with the region that identifies in HLR cause doubt.In some implementations, ASP can abandon these SMS message to avoid causing doubt to user.
NVLR also can notify the mobile radio station roaming number of the cellular subscriber of user to ownership HLR, all-calls is forwarded to the number that ASP determines.This number can represent gateway or bridge joint mobile switching centre, and the Call Transfer entered can be become voice example on IP by the latter.MSRN can be selected to be arranged in the region of ownership cellular carrier or to have another region of zero or relatively low roaming rate, to reduce the cost (such as, to avoid the toll telephone of the Chang Juhuo world to charge) of user.
In some cases, HLR can notify VLR, and that similar is nVLR, to cancel the user's registration in VLR.If this cancellation occurs, then nVLR can repeat road report process and registered user again.If user activates the SIM in mobile phone, this mobile phone to a different cellular network registration, then belongs to the old VLR of HLR General Notifications.Therefore, belong to HLR and can notify that this user no longer registers to this nVLR to nVLR.When HLR does not notify nVLR, nVLR can send routing iinformation and periodically inquire ownership HLR by sending short message, and detects user in another network, have activated SIM; And if HLR returns the message that instruction service VLR is different from nVLR address, then nVLR can determine that user have activated SIM in cellular networks.In this case, nVLR can discharge MSRN (such as, be used in reference to task other mobile devices).Or or in addition, nVLR can by notifying this application with the server of the application communication be arranged on the mobile device of user.
NVLR also can be used for for user sends SMS message.Such as, the message that be sent out can be provided to nVLR by a server, and this server receives the message of going out from the application of installing on the mobile apparatus.Then, nVLR can the ownership SMSC of contact user, and from the IMSI of user, SMS is sent to SMSC.Transmit mode report can be sent back to server and be forwarded to the application on mobile device.In addition, CAMEL interface can be used for inquiring to home-operator the difference service needed for user provides.Also other can be used for the technology of the IMSI inquiry ownership cellular carrier relative to user, and other can be provided to serve for MSISDN and/or IMSI.
Fig. 1 describes and allows mobile device to maintain cell identities and use packet switched data network to connect the communication system 100 visiting the service be associated with this cell identities.System 100 comprises mobile device 105, and mobile device 105 comprises by cellular radio network and the dual capability of being undertaken communicating by WLAN (wireless local area network) (WLAN).When being communicated by WLAN, mobile device 105 is communicated with WAP (wireless access point) 115 by wave point 110, and WAP (wireless access point) 115 is connected to the packet switching network 120 of such as the Internet and so on.Mobile device 105 comprises installs application 125, and this has been installed application 125 and has been communicated with application server 130 with packet switching network 120 by WAP (wireless access point) 115, and this application server 130 provides packet switching communication service by application 125 to mobile device 105.Such as, application server 130 can provide Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service, communication of text messages, video communication and image message transferring service to application 125.Although application 125 is described to be installed on mobile device 105, but in some implementations, some or most of application function can reside on server, and more limited or minimum function by nonvolatile memory on mobile device 105 more the instruction of permanent storage define.Instruction can be retrieved as required for execution and/or instruction can perform on application server 130 on the mobile device 105.In addition, in some implementations, mobile device 105 only can store the pointer and an application example identifier that point to application server, and this application example identifier is used for the use of the application function that mobile device 105 application server 130 stores and the use of other mobile devices to application function to make a distinction.Application example identifier can be encrypted to prevent from distorting or otherwise maintaining fail safe.In other implementations, the repertoire of application 125 can be stored on application server 130.The user of mobile device can activate and forbid this service, or by the web interface with server or change service configuration by other remote interactions such as such as SMS order, interactive voice responses (IVR).
Mobile device 105 also comprises subscriber identity module (SIM) 135, and this subscriber identity module (SIM) 135 allows mobile device 105 to visit cellular service by cellular radio network.SIM 135 comprises the reservation to ownership cellular network, this reservation by the information about SIM 135 and under subscribing available service memory in attaching position register (HLR) 140.In addition, SIM 135 and HLR 140 stores the unique identification information of SIM 135, comprises IMSI and MSISDN.
Within system 100, application 125 and application server 130 allow mobile device 105 by the unique identifier of the application-specific example that mobile device 105 is installed and SIM being identified (such as, IMSI and MSISDN) be associated, mobile device be not connected to cellular network or mobile device a different SIM has been installed time, the service that the unique identifier of association SIM 135 and access are provided by ownership cellular network.Particularly, application server 130 can be communicated with HLR 140 with the VLR be associated 150 (corresponding to said n VLR together) by bridge joint mobile switching centre (MSC) 145.Application server 130 can be communicated with VLR 150 with bridge joint MSC 145 by packet switching network 120, or application server 130 can by common location or the assembly being even combined as bridge joint MSC 145 or VLR 150.Bridge joint MSC 145 is communicated with HLR 140 by honeycomb backbone network (such as SS7 network 155) with VLR 150.Application 125 or application server 130 can automatically (such as, according to specific criteria) or in response to user with application 125 mutual, the service that request access is supported by ownership cellular network and the HLR 140 of user.In response to this, application server 130 can contact VLR 150 and send a registration message to make VLR 150, and this registration message notifies to HLR 140: roam in the cellular network that the mobile device 105 with the SIM 135 be associated just is being served at bridge joint MSC 145 and VLR 150.In some cases, before notifying that mobile device is being roamed to HLR 140, or by application 125 or by user manually forbid use this SIM135 communicate with cellular radio access networks.Such as, SIM 135 can be disabled or be removed from mobile device 105, or the cellular radio of mobile device can be closed, such as, by phone being placed in the offline mode of WiFi.This forbidding uses the cellular communication of SIM 135 can avoid VLR 150 and provides the current residing region of mobile device 105 has the registration conflicted between another VLR of service.In some implementations, VLR 150 can inquire about HLR 140 to confirm that SIM 135 is unregistered in another cellular network.
When VLR 159 sends registration notification to HLR 140, VLR 150 can provide MSRN.VLR 150 also can ask the subscription information of SIM 135, such as, and the mark of the service that request user subscribes.
After registration is complete, if initiate to be directed to mobile device (such as by telephone network 160, use the MSISDN of SIM 135) communication (such as, calling or SMS message), HLR 140 is queried in a usual manner and returns a MSRN, and this MSRN obtains from VLR 150 and is associated with bridge joint MSC 145.Therefore, communication is routed to bridge joint MSC 145, and bridge joint MSC 145 and then contact application server 130 are with the application 125 communication routed in mobile device 105.In some implementations, apply 125 can be used for providing with received by cellular radio network enter communication class like or identical user interface experience.When message (such as, SMS), this message only can be sent to application server and be used for being passed to application 125 by bridge joint MSC 145.When calling out, bridge joint MSC 145 is called out (such as call connection to IP will received by SS7 or other honeycomb backbone networks 155, VoIP), this IP calling is that application server 130 is set up between application 125 and bridge joint MSC 145.
In some implementations, the SIM 135 of mobile device 105 can replace with from the alternative SIM 136 that different ownership cellular networks is associated.Application 125 and application server 130 can will be directed to the communication redirection of the MSISDN be associated with SIM 135 to the mobile device 105 with this alternative SIM136.Such as, application server 130 can store the mark of SIM 135 and associating between this alternative SIM 136.In this case, replace and enter what receive at bridge joint MSC 145 place the application 105 communicating and route on mobile device 105, communication can be routed to Session initiation Protocol (SIP) gateway 165 that is associated with interviewed MSC 170 (such as by application server 130, connect by the message received via bridge joint MSC 145 being sent to SIP gateway 165 or setting up VoIP between bridge joint MSC145 and SIP gateway 165), this interviewed MSC 170 is current is serving the mobile radio station 105 with this alternative SIM 136.SIP gateway 165 and/or interviewed MSC 170 can identify by inquiring about the HLR that be associated with SIM 136, or enter to call out and otherwise can be routed to the MSISDN be associated with SIM 136.Therefore, communication can by providing the base station 175 of service to be routed to mobile device 105 for mobile device 105.By communication being routed to the mobile device 105 using and substitute SIM 136, the user of mobile device can receive the communication being directed to the normal telephone number of user when such as international roaming, this makes user can be avoided high international roaming expense.
Fig. 2 is the flow chart of the process 200 for the communication of the cell identities being directed to mobile device being routed to the application on mobile device.205, use the WAP (wireless access point) being connected to packet switching network or Internet protocol network, be sent to server by the request of the telephone service be associated with cell phone identifier from this application.This request can be use WLAN connect instead of by cellular radio access networks, this service be supplied to mobile device by this application.This request can comprise the unique application Provisioning Instance Identifier of the application be installed on mobile device, and this application example identifier can have existing association with the cell identities of mobile device (such as, MSISDN or IMSI).This request can such as be initiated in response to detecting by enough connections of WAP (wireless access point) support Voice over Internet Protocol communication.Or or in addition, this request can be initiated in response to meeting one or more parameter.Such as, parameter can be about: the relative quality (such as, such as giving best in quality service when there is marginal cellular service) that honeycomb is connected with WLAN; User is allowed to select the setting of receipt of call based on the quality connected; The poor honeycomb of automatic detection receives (such as, based on the signal strength indicator received (RSSI), bit error rate (BER), lost-call, low encoding and decoding quality etc.); Position (such as, to reduce cost during roaming); With the degree of approach of family or office; Based on the access to specific WiFi network; And during day.210, in response to this request, cell phone identifier is registered to the visitor location register be associated with bridge joint MSC, and this bridge joint MSC is applicable to by honeycomb backbone network received communication and by packet switching network routing to communicate.215, or before VLR registration or after VLR registration, the cellular communication of this cell phone identifier of forbidding use.This forbidding can be automatically performed by application or be performed by user's manual operation.220, perform the unregistered confirmation in another cellular network of this cell phone identifier.Such as, confirmation can be performed by visitor location register.
225, roam in the attaching position register be associated with cell phone notifies the network that this cell phone is just being served at visitor location register.Even if cell phone may be physically located in a diverse location and due to have disabled cellular communication and actual use cellular communication feature time, also can make this notice.VLR can provide selected MSRN to charge to avoid or to reduce toll telephone.230, VLR from cell phone to HLR place registration after, receive at place of bridge joint mobile switching centre and be directed to this cellular communication.Communication can be such as audio call, text message, image message or video call.235, the communication received is routed to cell phone by packet switching network.Communication can be routed to the application on cell phone.Or communication can be routed to the number be associated with the alternative SIM installed in cell phone temporarily.240, by the application on cell phone or by being connected with the honeycomb of alternative SIM, receive the communication being directed to cell phone identifier on a packet switched network from bridge joint mobile switching centre.Upon receiving the communication, call log or Message Record can be connected with use honeycomb the calling or message synchronization that receive.
stop by the communication lines of packet switching network by
In some cases, ownership cellular carrier may wish to stop by communication forwarding to third party, and may wish to stop this less desirable forwarding.In the examples below, term " stops communication " or represents that prevention particular message is passed through, or represents that the message sending interference proper communication such as sends the nVLR of cancel register to IMSI.Following examples can be used alone or with any appropriately combined use.By nVLR being designated the less desirable VLR for roaming, and can comparing in the SS7 address being reported to VLR and the nVLR of HLR by home-operator, finds less desirable forwarding.Home-operator can stop the all-network traffic to the operator supporting nVLR to communicate with nVLR with stopping, or stops some or all traffics going to nVLR.Such as, operator can defaultly not allow to roam to operator, and requires that user asks especially to Roaming Authorization in the operator network.Or, home-operator can by from user from network disconnects elapsed time with user compared with the time that nVLR registers, if this time difference lower than a threshold value, then interrupt this communication.In certain embodiments, the threshold value region that can be subject to the network that user disconnects to nVLR region between distance affected.In another embodiment, the communication of the event schema that home-operator can stop nVLR to create, such as short message sends routing iinformation, then registered user in the region being different from last region.In another embodiment, when the MSRN that nVLR provides is not in the country or region of the operator of support nVLR, home-operator can stop communication.In another embodiment, home-operator can provide the IMSI number different from the IMSI number of the SIM being associated with user by sending in routing iinformation (Send-Routing-Infor-for-Short-Message) at short message, carry out the IMSI of hiding user, therefore do not allow ASP to find the IMSI of the subscriber stored in SIM card.In another embodiment, home-operator can report a VLR address in response short message being sent to route messages, and this VLR address is different from the VLR that is currently serviced in user and makes to enter the VLR that message is passed to this VLR instead of service.Then, SMS can be passed to the subscriber of this service VLR by operator.In certain embodiments, even if also can not report this report VLR serviced user, message can be passed to this user when user again activity online.In this embodiment, nVLR may infer that this subscriber have activated its SIM in a mobile network, and therefore removes the registration of this subscriber and nVLR.In another embodiment, home-operator can comprise application on the SIM of user, and this home-operator sends message to this application.If this message is not confirmed to home-operator by this application, then home-operator can remove the registration of this IMSI and its service VLR, or otherwise interrupts the communication with VLR.The message and this confirmation that are sent to application can be cryptographically protected, to avoid being palmed off by the entity beyond this SIM.In this embodiment, because SIM is online, therefore application can not receipt message, and the nVLR therefore serving as the VLR of this IMSI can remove the registration of user, or its communication can be interrupted.
Fig. 3 is the flow chart for stoping the communication of the cell identities being directed to mobile device to be routed to the process 300 of the application on mobile device.305, the use to visitor location register detected, calling is forwarded to mobile device for using packet data network by this visitor location register.310, the calling to mobile device is stoped to be forwarded to visitor location register based on detected use.
the discovery of cell identities and confirmation
In some implementations, ASP may wish to use to avoid depending on provides the process of the user of this information to determine MSISDN or other cell identities of registered phone.This process can comprise discovery phase and the stage of recognition, in discovery phase, (namely ASP learns the possible MSISDN of user, " number found "), in the stage of recognition, ASP confirms that user has the access to the MSISDN obtained during discovery phase or other cell identities.
In the illustrative embodiment of discovery phase, nVLR sends the telephone number be associated with first gateway interface of nVLR to Mobile solution.Then, Mobile solution is initiated to the calling of going out of this telephone number.When this calling arrives nVLR, nVLR can find the MSISDN of registered phone from caller ID (caller ID) information entering calling.Mobile solution can hide the fact that this phone dialling on a user interface to avoid making user feel uncertain.NVLR can configure the first gateway interface further to refuse immediately once receiving calling, thus only takies the cellular telephone radio of user at little time quantum.In some cases, user account can be configured to not send caller ID, and this can stop nVLR to receive the number of user.In order to process this situation, Mobile solution can indicate phone, by adding prefix * 31# to phone, requires the caller ID that network only allows this to call out.Such as, if the telephone number be associated with the first gateway interface is+1202134567, then Mobile solution can indicate dialing * 31#+1202134567.Or application can allow caller ID to present before dialing phone number.Application can the inspection caller ID-relevant with the reservation of user in network be also present condition before permission caller ID, if and caller ID is presented on before application allows caller ID disabled, then application can present by disable call person ID after the calling being made to nVLR, and the subscription profiles of user on network being put back to its original caller ID-is present condition.
In the illustrative embodiment of the stage of recognition, nVLR sends to found number calling of going out, and wherein this calling comprises the caller ID selected from the scope or list of possible caller ID.Mobile solution is from this phone reception caller ID and report back nVLR by the caller ID received.Because user does not know to call out which caller ID, therefore report back that nVLR proves that this application has the access of the telephone number to this user by correct caller ID.The caller ID that self-application receives by nVLR and be used for calling out found number caller ID compared with.If two numbers match, then confirm the number found.Otherwise, confirm unsuccessfully.Can from an enough large spatial choice for generating the caller ID scope of calling, with the reasonable guarantee providing opposing to attack.Such as, if from the space of 10000 possible caller ID at random and select caller ID uniformly, then the probability that assailant successfully carries out confirming not receiving calling mostly is 1/10000 most.If from larger possibility spatial choice caller ID or by repeating several times by this process, preferably fail safe can be realized.Or caller ID can be set as the number of stochastic generation, the number of this stochastic generation not necessarily represents physical number.In certain embodiments, nVLR only compares several of the caller ID received.In other embodiments, the report the test of the function being applied to caller ID can be returned server by application, and server performs similar functions and compares these results.If result is mated, then confirm the number found, otherwise, confirm unsuccessfully.
For finding that order ground uses the telephone number be associated with the first gateway interface in nVLR can be important effectively.Therefore, several registered phone can be assigned to same telephone number so that section is called out at one time.Therefore, nVLR has the list of several MSISDN found.NVLR can call out these MSISDN during confirmation process.If the caller ID that self-application receives back with go out to call out in the caller ID that uses match, nVLR successfully can confirm MSISDN, and it also identify Mobile solution report the example that this caller ID has found MSISDN.Confirmation process can use together with above-mentioned discovery procedure, or uses together with another discover method.
In an illustrative embodiment substituted, USSD (unstructured. supplementary service data) message with pin code can be sent to found telephone number from nVLR.User can key in the code received and be back to Mobile solution, or application automatically can search this pin code from USSD message.This pin code is reported back nVLR by Mobile solution, and the code that sent compared with the code received, if they are identical, is then confirmed the telephone number found by the latter.Otherwise, confirm unsuccessfully, because only have the people that can access registered phone could receive the USSD with pin code.Can by Mobile solution before pin code is back to eVLR and by nVLR before more multiple value, a mathematical function is applied on this pin code.In an implementation substituted, can USSD be replaced and use SMS message or another message.
